Police say they caught woman before she could steal

Oswego, NY -- Police responding to a report of a robbery in progress found the glass door of a restaurant broken and a 51-year-old woman inside.

Oswego police said a report came in around 9:15 p.m. Sunday from the House of Thai Restaurant on West 2nd Street. When they got there, police arrested Terry L. Clark, of 225 West First St., Apt. 409, Oswego.

Police said Clark apparently broke the window of the business with a rock in order to get inside “with the intent of stealing property from within.”

Police said they caught Clark before she had a chance to take anything.

Clark was arraigned on charges of criminal mischief in the second degree and third-degree burglary, both felonies. Clark was released and told to return to court April 27.
